| Summary | "The Cornhill Magazine (vol. XLII, no. 250 new series, April 1917)" is a literary magazine published in the early 20th century, specifically during World War I. The magazine includes a collection of various articles, stories, and illustrations, providing insight into life and perspectives of that era, with a particular focus on the war’s impact on society. The opening portion of the magazine begins with a detailed depiction of a naval battle onboard a British battle-cruiser during World War I, capturing the tense atmosphere among the officers and the casual interactions as they prepare for action. It vividly describes the wardroom where they gather, their somber meal of tea and stale cake, and the sudden shift in mood when news of an enemy light cruiser prompts their readiness for combat. As the scene unfolds, readers are introduced to the complex dynamics of naval warfare, culminating in the latter part where a lieutenant spots enemy vessels and engages in a fierce exchange of fire, emphasizing the chaos and high stakes of naval battles amid the broader context of the war.
